"Splish, Splash"


The Squeaky Clean Dozen

  I loved making these cupcakes.  They are just so cute, that you can't help but have fun with them.  I made these for a birthday party, and they were a big hit.  The ducks are made from white chocolate, and I used duck shaped candy molds for them.   The cupcakes are vanilla, and turned out tasting kind of like an angel food cake.  The recipe came from this website: Night Baking: Vanilla Cupcakes.  I found the basic pond design from this website:Sweet Jems: Duck Cupcakes.

Blue Eyed and Brown Eyed Ducks

When making these cupcakes there was a debate about which eye color suited ducks the best.  I voted the brown eyed ones were better, because they looked cuter.  I will leave it up to you to pick your favorite.

The icing for these was a simple butter cream.  I used a blue gel icing right around the base of the duck to make it look more like water.
